The temperature of molten metal in the ladle is around 1650 degrees centigrade (3000 degrees F) and above. When this metal flows from ladle to tundish the temperature drops considerably. Without the use of insulation cover material, there may be breakdown in caster due to loss of temperature.
When Insulating Powder (Radex) – Innsulekx is spread as coating over the molten metal (about 1 inch to 2 inches thick blanket on the hot molten metal)
in the ladle and tundish, it acts as a very good insulator and the temperature does not come down quickly in the tundish and ladle.
- Application of Innsulekx prevents radiation heat losses.
- Innsulekx is self-spreading and does not form a heap over the molten metal. This leads to better insulation of the metal saving energy.
- Skull formation is reduced to a large extent making the operations easier in the process of steel making in concast area.
- Application of Innsulekx prevents re-oxidation of metal.
